What We Do

Rocket Alumni Solutions makes web-based touchscreen software. We make it all ā€œJust Workā€ and allow schools to upload massive amounts of media. We make all that media look pretty and organized. We then enable schools to engage alumni & donors with this information. We simplify the process of delivering museum quality web-based touchscreen displays and allow schools to engage alumni at scale.
